Maintenance Technician - 3rd Shift

About Proper Beverage Company

Proper Beverage Company began in 2018 with the purchase of Proper Soda Co., rooted in a belief that quality and people should always come first. What started with one machine and a lot of determination quickly evolved into a passion for co‑packing, as we recognized the need for a partner who truly supported small to mid‑size and startup brands. In 2019, we fully shifted our focus to co‑packing and became the Proper Beverage Company we are today.

As a rapidly growing, locally owned business, we pride ourselves on doing things the proper way – with integrity, precision, and a commitment to quality. We collaborate closely with our partners to bring a wide range of beverages to life, while fostering a workplace where hard work is valued, growth is encouraged, and every employee has the opportunity to make a real impact.
